check_for_release immediately calls cgroup_is_releasable, which checks
for the same bit as notify_on_release. There's no need for
CGRP_RELEASABLE to depend on notify_on_release, or to check
notify_on_release before calling check_for_release.

I matched the existing behavior, __css_put sets CGRP_RELEASABLE when
refcnt goes to 0.

Actually, I think CGRP_RELEASABLE can be dropped entirely.
check_for_release is only called from __css_put, cgroup_rmdir, and
__put_css_set (or free_css_set_work after my second patch). Those all
imply that __css_get, get_css_set, or cgroup_create have been
previously called, which are the functions that set CGRP_RELEASABLE.
